There are three kinds of market participants in Chinese express market:state-owned express enterprises,private express enterprises and foreign-capital express enterprises.Private express enterprises have developed rapidly since its born in 1990s,and have now become the main force of Chinese express industry.Therefore,the development of private express enterprises has a great influence on Chinese express industry.Currently,in domestic express business,cost is rising continuously,and profit rate is falling constantly.But international express business has a higher profit rate.On the other side,the entry of foreign capital express enterprises into domestic express industry has intensified the competition in domestic express market.Under such a background,private express enterprises of our country have to possess international vision,seek new profit growth points and explore international markets.There is a huge gap between Chinese private express enterprises and international well-known express enterprises such as UPS,FedEx and DHL in capital,technology,services outlets and infrastructure facilities,etc.International express giants have formed"Global Express" mode with strong strength,their business scope and service network have covered more than 200 countries and regions in the world.However,the international express business of Chinese private express enterprises is mainly focused on the convective special line express between China and other countries,and has not yet formed"Global Express" mode.Whether from the perspective of scale strength or business market,in international express business,Chinese private express enterprises are more likely to form direct competition among themselves.Therefore,this paper focuses on the comparison of international competitiveness of Chinese private express enterprises,thereby formulates more effective and targeted development strategies to enhance international competitiveness of Chinese private express enterprises.This paper takes Porter's value chain as the main research tool,firstly reviews relevant research status at home and abroad,including value chain theory,enterprise international competitiveness and based on value chain express enterprises competitiveness,and expounds relevant theories,including express industry theory,enterprise international competitiveness theory and enterprise value chain theory;secondly,under the background of the status quo of global and Chinese express industry,analyzes opportunities and challenges faced by the internationalization development of Chinese private express enterprises and the gap with international well-known express enterprises;then based on Porter's value chain model,reconstructs the value chain of private express enterprises,and on the basis of the reconstructed value chain,builds the evaluation index system of international competitiveness of private express enterprises;finally,applies grey correlation model based on entropy weight to analyze empirically the 5 sample enterprises selected.Empirical analysis results show that the strength of people,money and materials of enterprise has a great influence on international competitiveness of private express enterprises;besides the international competitiveness of SF is relatively strong,the international competitiveness of other four sample enterprises is all relatively weak.Finally,according to empirical results,based on internal value chain of private express enterprises,this paper puts forward suggestions on improving the international competitiveness of private express enterprises.
